The foods are so good, reasonably priced with great portion size. It's not salty but definitely not bland! Highly recommend the TW pork belly buns. I really appreciate fushion foods - they added gherkins and pickled cabbages into the mix, making the bun salty, sweet, sour and crunchy. The staff there is very friendly too even though they are super busy. Highly recommended!

Authentic Taiwanese food. The pork rice (ru rou fan) is really nice, a must try. The steam dumpling is tasty too. Corn soup is with great taste. The pork meat with bun ( gua bao) is one of the highlight. it s a must try for anyone that want authentic Taiwanese food. The owner is kind enough to offer an icecream for the kids. even the icecream tasted better than MxD... staff are all friendly. food came very fast even though there are many customer around. Highly recommend. Food: 5 Service: 5 Atmosphere: 4

Had the lamb hot pot and beef noodles and sliced beef and ox tongue in chilli sauce. The lamb hot pot was so bland and literally like water boiled veggies and lamb. The ox tongue cold dish was so salty. The beef noodles were really tasty tho. Food: 3 Service: 5 Atmosphere: 3

AN ABSOLUTE MUST—HAVE. My wife and I were in Dunedin for 3 days, and we visited this restaurant every single day. It’s by far, our favourite place in the whole of New Zealand. The food is so damn delicious and staff here are so nice. The sour and spicy fish soup is our favourite. My wife have made me promise her to bring her here every year. And I’m from Singapore, by the way 😆 so that’s a huge commitment right there. Enjoy the food and thank us later! Service Dine in Meal type Dinner Recommended dishes BBQ Pork and Prawn Fried Rice

Hands down best Chinese restaurant I’ve ever had the delight to eat at, highlights be maos braised pork belly, hot pot, stone pot. Tooooo good. Wish Auckland had one of these, this’ll always have a special place in my heart. Any of their szuchuan dishes are a great option. I've had their szuchuan pork belly which was delicious and the pork intestines. Both meats were very tender and easy to chew, flavorsome and a good portion size. I've also had a tofu vegetable stir fry which was decent. No wow factor, the tofu was soft and there was a satisfactory amount of it compared to the vegetables. (Also recommend mao's braised pork belly! there's one with rice and the pork belly is still such a generous portion-so worth! The pork is pretty delicious, best right there and then, and it also has pickled vegetables on the bottom of the dish, such a yummy accompaniment!) Decided to opt out of my comfort zone and ordering something different from my usual choices of pork belly! Ordered the sliced lamb hot pot with Chinese medicinal herbs and it was definitely a goodie. The lamb was tender and soft to chew, and the tofu was a perfect solidness-not too firm but not fall apart soft either, and stayed well intact when I picked it up with my chopsticks. Other accompanies bits were bok Choy which were a little tough and two pieces were very dry (at the top), a few sweet Chinese dates (yummy not dry!), and bamboo shoot pieces throughout. They were a nice addition, but the flavor of the soup really carried the meal through. The soup was full of flavor and really well paired with lamb, it was sweet yet ever so slightly tinged with a hint of the distinct traditional medicinal herb flavor-dare I say bitter? Definitely worth trying if you're a fan of lamb hot pot. The meal was a generous portion for the price and definitely worth. It could've been separated into two meals but I was greedy and ate it all. My friend got the kimchi pork hot pot, and let me try a bit-the kimchi flavor was slightly spicy and sour, a delicious awakening for the taste buds, however the pork had a 'strong pork taste' and was a bit tougher than I was expecting (more so than the lamb) and did not hold my attention as much. Still delicious, but if the pork was more tender I would've rated higher. Eggplant with mince and salty fish is also a delicious one!

Consistent Asian restaurant with simple delicious Asian style food. Ever since visiting Dunedin every year from 2013, every time I’ve always eaten here at least once or twice per trip and the food has a always been consistently good. I especially love the chicken nugget on rice or noodle. This trip we got the deep fried pork belly and it was soooo good. Highly recommend!
